FARM REFORMS.
Advantages to 80 Derived from Planning

Advantages to IBo Derived from Planning
the Years work In winter.
We ought 10 learn to farm better
every year. What we learn from our
own experience, and what we can
learn from the experience of others, If
we care to take the trouble, should
enable us to improve in some respects.
There is, Of course, something in
being willing to learn. II in spite of
our own experience we still insist upon
following the old plan, when we know
from experience that a change can be
made with profit, look over the work
done during the past year. see what
the results were, and then plan the
work for another year with this knOwl-
edge before ms. II you have kept ac-
counts Of the different farm crops, you
know what have realized a profit and
what have proved failures. aud from
this You can plan out next years work
30 better advantage. II no accounts
have been kept, make up your mind TO
begin at once. You can not tell, with
any accuracy, how much profit has
been derived, and from what source
obtained, unless you keep accounts,
and you really can not afford to farm
without knowing exactly what you are
clearing in business way. twill take
less time than you imagine. Any plan
that will show how much Il costs To
raise n crop and what It brings, will do.
PlaRsout rs nearly rs possible the
gears work. II you have never plat
ted out the farm. take time 10 do II in
winter. Divide into convenient fields
and number, and in starting your ac-
counts give each a page. aud II you de-
eide what crops you will plant in each
field or plot. make a memorandum Of
H. Considerable lime can be saved in
the spring by knowing just what you
expect 10 do, and what plan you ex-
pect 30 follow 10 carry IL out.
The largest part Of the hard work
can bo done now. so that when spring
opens no time will be lost In trying to
decide what you will do aud what you
consider 90 be the best plan.
II you have carefully tried one plan
that has not been rs profitable as II
should, and you have used all reason.
able pains TO secure a profit, try some
thing different. There is no policy in
following the same plan year after
year, when you fail 10 derive the profit
you should, just because it is the way
you have always been accustomed "a
following. IL is far more sensible 10
own that We are wrong. and make a
change, than 10 follow out our mis-
takes when experience has shown that
II is not best
II requires good management to se-
cure the most profit from the farm, aud
we may very often spend time in study
Ing and planning ahead, and this time
can be best spared during the water.

THE HOG IN WINTER.
Conditions Which should Be Taken Into

Conditions which should Be Taken Into
Consideration by Pork-RaiscrI.
The hog has digestive organs ihat
are particularly well calculated for the
digestion Of fibrous food. This, in II
state Of nature. was his mgin food; In
fact, leaving out nuts and grubs, pretty
much his entire source Of living. When
the hog is shut away from pasture and
put into winter quarters, the change
from a variety Of food to the customary
ration Of corn. and nothing but corn, Is
not always conducive to health. In
fact, indigcstion-for even the hog may
have this-afTects many hogs that are
thus changed from grass and other
fibrous food 10 corn alone or corn
mainly. It should be borne in mind
that the animal has no power to change
the elements in the food given to it.
lie can only appropriate what is given
him. In his native condition the hog
had, rs he now has when on pasture.
food containing n nutritivo ratio of
about / Of albuminoids to ~ Of carbo-
hydratcs, while the usual winter feed,
corn, contains a nutritive ratio Of to
SO, establishing the fact that the hog
in his native condition, and in modern
times, when on pasture, is furnished
with food far more conducive to growth
of muscle and frame than when he is
confined 10 corn alone. Before the
improvement made upon the pig during
the past one hundred years, he had n
much larger proportion Of lean flesh rs
compared To the fat than now. The
feeding Of corn during winter Is proper
enough in view Of its adaptLbility to
the condition imposed by low tenn
peraturc, rs fat is one Of the best
shields against cold. But the plan
adopted by many Of allowing tho hog
